Stand by your man

When you were at school and a bully or bullies stood over smaller, less able kids, or even your friends, what did you do? Did you:

A. Say I will not get involved because any decision to get involved would not be in my interests and needs decision by consensus; or

B. Stand up to the bullies, telling them to shove off; and also telling them you would stand by the kid being bullied because they were your friends and friends stick together?

Labour party members would take option A. Further, they would also probably ask for a mandate to get involved from any students association or after a consensus was achieved by like minded students.

Others would take option B. Option B members are made up of people like Bush, Blair & Howard. It seems Brash is inclined toward option B too, as is Simon Power:

"National would support its close allies the Australia, the US and Britain "when and wheresoever our commitment is called upon".

He said this last year. The Nats. disowned it saying it was a personal opinion of his.

Don't disown it. Own it. Adopt it. And stand up to the bullies who are called terrorists.

After all, if you don't you only get pushed around even more.
